Sketchbook: Micah Rogers

Micah

I thought that its about time to start one of these things because it will hopefully push me to do a little bit more art.

I will start by first uploading some work that I've done in the past (not much as my last PC died and im not one to backup work)

A plane that I did for painting practice.




And a character i did for the TRON comp that never finished...




I will upload some recent studies that I did in the last few days once I take pictures of them.

leave a comment or leave some crit aswell.

Micah

Well i havn't taken any pictures from my scetch book but i will get round to it some time.
I did some digital doodles today and need to do some more digital stuff to get more used to it...bla bla bla doodles:
Animal people seem to be on my mind at the moment so i did a minotaur and some planes of an animle person.

I like your low poly work that you have posted, and look forward to seeing more!

Micah

hmm well i havn't put up any work from my sketch pad still and haven't touched the tablet much recently due to exams, but the're done now and i have a sketch of a critter that bounces, has no eyes but has a keen sence of smell and hearing.

need to do more DIGITAL WORK.

Micah

Did this: his name is Weed Pot

So programing and illnes has been eating up my time, which means that I've had little time to do much art.
But heres a low poly face texturing practice inspired by weisheng.
tris = 22
pixels = 128*128

Micah

Wow two days in a row of posting need to keep this shit going ( not gonna happen XD )

Well decided to do another head after yesterdays DISASTER. So ya here you go:

Hand painted cartoon'sh per portioned Orc.
Tris = 50
Pixels = 128*128

Micah

well i have been working all summer and haven't had as much time to art as I would have liked to, but you know what they say "don't have the time, make the time."
so here's a lil super hero character I pooped out. more to come soon I HOPE.

Micah

Did this for the little com over at lowpoly workshop:

Joseph Silverman

I like these last few posts a lot! Your textures are clearly improving. That orc is adorable. I'd love to see more of a sense of volume in your textures -- some bigger gradients to show form and mass.

Micah

Thanks SupRore, I'll take those crits on board! I hope my textures are improving because I've been working hard to up my game.

And a hand painted sword:

Micah

ok the next sword! So I made a plain sword planing to make a more pimped out sword... Now I want this sword to really stand out, so please tell me what you think. Be harsh if you have to!

Quick concept I did (I should really spend more time on them) :

Zeldrak

hand painted textures look very cool, too bad you didn't finish that tron game :P

very nice stuff, keep them coming

Micah

Zeldrak: The Tron mockup was for the lowpoly comp that happened a few months back.
Thanks, will keep em comming.

Now for the hand painted sword Model from concept, you will notice I strayed away from the concept abit, only to try some things out ( in other words, to learn)



Keep the crits comming!

Micah

@joakim.hoglund: really simple but awesome, well done sir.

So decided to test my self today, gave myself an hour to do a common hand painted sign and also try a diffrent approach.

Came out ok for an hour:P really shows me where I need to improve my workflow.
